Frey's New Colored Freesias 



We are offering this season two varieties which have been very popular on the Chicago Market 

 for several seasons. These are the result of crossing and hybridizing by Mr. Frey for a 

 number of years, and are large-flowered sorts of branching habit and long stems.

be common stock. In addition to in- 

 creasing the capital stock, the petition 

 asks that the purposes of the corpora- 

 tion be amended to permit the firm to 

 handle hay, feed, fertilizer and insecti- 

 cides; to manufacture feed, fertilizer 

 and insecticides; to purchase and sell 

 all kinds of flowers, shrubbery and vege- 

 table plants, and to establish, maintain 

 and operate greenhouses and nurseries. 



The firm has recently purchased a 

 handsome building site directly oppo- 

 site the Union station at Harrisonburg, 

 one block from the public square. The 

 lot fronts fifty-five feet on West Mar- 

 ket street and has a railroad trackage 

 of 205 feet. Contractors are now busy 

 erecting a large building, which is to 

 be 167 feet long, fifty-five feet wide 

 and four stories high. The most modern 

 store fixtures and cleaning machinery 

 will be installed. 



At a recent meeting the following 

 ofiicers and directors were elected: 

 President, 8. L. Hoover, a director in 

 the National bank; vice-president, 8. 8. 

 Shaver, a retired miller; secretary, E. H. 

 Wetsel, and treasurer and general 

 manager, A. W. Wetsel. These gentle- 

 men, with H. C. Warden, a director in 

 the Bank of Clark County, will con- 

 stitute the board of directors. Only 

 the Wetsel brothers will be actively 

 engaged in the business, but Mr. Hoover 

 as president will be in close contact 

 with it. 



The W. A. Simpson Co., of Baltimore, 

 Md., is no longer connected in any way 

 with this firm. 



DT7TCH BULB CABaOES BIOOEB. 



When bulbs predominate in a ship's 

 cargo, as they did in that of the H. 

 Luckenbach, which, following the Rot- 

 terdam by two days, arrived at New 

 Tork August 23 from Rotterdam, one 

 naturally expects such-*^ cargo to set 

 some sort of a record, as being the bulb 

 boat of the season. The 5,388 cases 

 which came on the H. Luckenbach are 

 much fewer, however, than the 15,000 

 which came on the Cunard steamer, Nor- 

 man Monarch, September 22, 1919, or 

 the record cargo of 22,000 cases which 

 the Khiva brought in the fall of 1918. 

 The H. Luckenbach 's bulb cargo, how- 

 ever, was more than twice as large as 

 the aggregate of the shipments brought
